Its that time again for our next meeting and to reflect on our successful road trip to Adelaide, South Australia to participate in the SAPMA Model Expo. There will be lots to talk about including our win for the ‘Best Club Display’ with our very own ‘Naval Aviation – The Flying Seamen’ display.

Before the general meeting is our scheduled Committee meeting to cover off all the formal topics, and to make sure our club continues to stay in great shape.

Please bring along any show and tell and any kits you would like to work on during the meeting.

Look forward to seeing you all there!

Our schedule is running hot with a few items on the list such as:

Build a Bitch – Mark from Sprue Finders has once again donated kits that were allocated at our last meeting and also includes special prizes

SAPMA Expo – our pending road trip is on the drawing board with the theme of ” Naval Aviation – The Flying Seamen” – sounds like a winner to me!

Sorry with this very late notice but our next meeting is on this Sunday, so look forward to seeing you all there.

Model Expo is almost here and will be on over the Queens birthday long weekend, 10th-12th June. Warbirds will be there with our club display featuring MIGs as well as some general kits, so this is a great opportunity to show the public who we are and what we are about.

We are making preparations for a trip to take part in SAPMA Model Expo, being held on 14th-14th October. Warbirds will have club display called “Naval Aviation – The Flying Seamen” so it would be great to see as many members as possible take part.

And finally, don’t forget to bring along new works in progress, Expo entries, new goodies or general show and tell. And just for the fun of it bring along any kits in progress to continue working on at the meeting!

See you all there!

Next Meeting Sunday 7th May

/ warbirds2014

Our next meeting is on this Sunday and its all go for Model Expo discussions, namely our club display including what kits will be displayed, manning our club display and other related items.

We encourage all members to bring along kits to build as it helps to promote conversation and bring variety to our interests whether it be aircraft, armour or something completely different.

A new concept that we have experimented with is the rotating of chairing meetings with the members. Basically the floor is open to those who might like to get involved with running a meeting. This can often be a daunting thought for many, but it gives the members a taste of what its like to drive the show. In some respects it can make nominations for committee positions and easier proposition, and less of an obstacle. Its all about allowing others to have a voice and to put a different perspective on format and discussion points. Maybe we might have a newbee at this meeting!

Anyway as I have missed the last few meetings I am really looking forward to coming back. Missing a whole month is bad enough, but to be away for two in a row has been rough!

See you all on Sunday.
